“The Trust and pupils from Douglas Academy helped us with the consultation element of the skate park upgrade and I wish to thank them for all their hard work to make sure Lennox Park is improved for residents and visitors.

“This positive partnership working is something we wish to carry forward to other projects in the future.

“The finished skate park is going to be fantastic and it’s something that

will benefit the community.”

Callum Christie, chairman of MCDT, said: “It’s great to see the ideas and feedback from folk of all ages in Milngavie starting to bear fruit through positive partnerships.

“From recent public meetings and working groups we hope to soon have a detailed strategy to ensure that Lennox Park can better serve more people than at present.

“Council officers have been very willing and helpful so that we are hopeful of delivering many projects contained within the Community Action Plan – that can be seen at www.milngaviedt.co.uk.?
